Henceforth, all Legal Ad vcrtisoincnts, of County Inf crest, Avhetlior notices or others* will be publish ed libr tlie benefit, of om* l'eaders whether they ore . paid for 91* not. J.;- ...... SUBSCRIBERS "Will have their papers regularly mailed. Send us new names, build up our paper, and let every household in the County bo a supporter of our enter prise.'' ? ADVERTISERS Will find It Specially to their interest to give us their cards. A conspicuous notice will attend eAch advertisement. To build up the interests of our merchants is the aim of the "Times." THE SOUTH CAftOLIXA RAILROAD, ' Mr. James of Georgia is determined As.fpv as in his power ifes, to change the control of this road, and has advertized extensively to this effect, requesting country papers to insert his cards. Our county represents a large number of shares, and we have but one suggestion to offer. 1A decided fecliug of dissatis faction prevails with regard .to the road, and a general belief that the comoany can pay' dividends. Wc do* not think thattthe gentlemen who compose the di rectorship of the road, indulge .iu ? non payment of dividends, merely fpr the luxury of the thing. It is hardly possi ble hi'this time of money pressure, that thcyvwould. be eo blind to their interests, and that of the stockholders they repre sent^ by pursuing such a course. At the same" time it would be well, if every county in the' Stute owning stock could be represented in the board. This would give a fair and'impartial knowledge of tlus'affairsof the road, and satisfy many who arc in doubt. The Company has bad a backset by the wholesale destrucr tion of its property during the war, and by an accumulation of interest on its liabilities, that eight years could not irttb but; and our people had better be assured thoroughly oi what they are do ing, before.tboy cast the die. Experien ced end honorable men are now at the hclm/aud An experiment.may prove fa tal both to the road, audits stockholders. POOR PAY, POOR PBEACll VTjhe. power of a man's subsistence, is to a great extent a power over bis will. Give the Judge an adequate support, then his fortitude" cannot be weakened by operating on his necessities." . Soorates was'offered hi:> personal liber ty, frpip tho death penalty,- if he would recant his opinions of what to him was Truth. He .scorned the bribe, and died that honor should live. Human nature is frail, fc? frail that'it must be fortified With meAns that render the commission o^'offence unnecessary. The viciously inclined may be bribed by contributing Lo his ucce^ities, but Virtue is its own reward, avd never enn be purchased. In quoting.the.above extraet from Judge Graham's speech, lately delivered before th^lllbernian Society, we do not iiYtend any personal reflection upon the Judge: ffc'nrgucd in the abstract, and wcsh'dnhl fye,much disappointed in his Honor, if we could believe that his necessities would bias or affect his" fortitude in the decision of a legal question upon Which defended the interest or safety ofan ollicv. Ycj we must c ii.fesa a bldsh, that, the ^u)jui!-.sion was made by him, that the'sacred ermine; worn by such worthies ? ; C'hevcn, Whitnor and O'Kenll, lias descended to those, whoso measuring of justice, is doicd out in accordance with the pay of the office. Wo admit that so exulted a trust as as a Judgeship, should he invested with.salary sufficient to com pensate' one whoso entire time is ab sorbed in its grave duties. Comforts and conveniences shofcldbe allowed, to rid his mind of any extraneous business, calcu lated to weaken his efficiency. But that either a scantiness of pay, or prodigality of reward, should influence his" upright ness, or affect his fortitude, is a code of ethics quite peculiar to a new school, und at variance-with the old. .Tho "Lord high chancellor" of England may regard as necessities, his coach and four, and outriders, his hounds and his chateau, while the parish magistrate ekes out an existence on an hundred pounds a year. But that cither should defect from a ren dition of Justice, on account of tho cir cumstances surrounding the physical man; would not afford a sufficient plea to the tuilerer, from the moral delinquency of his Judge. Both accepted the trust to discharge its functions for the public good and not according to the amount of pay it yields. Such reasoning is op posed to the nature of the position, and conceding its truth, we rend tho ban dage from the eyes of even bonded jus tice, and leave the scales to settle on the side of bribery. Honor shall have do serted the bench to knavery, and the hateful thing. '?Seen too oft, familiar with its fnce" "We first endure/ then pity, then embrace*' What if tie- tatterdemalion on trial for theft should plead "give me n suffi rnency, aud I will not be forced to steal" would this justify his offence*: Fortitude founded Upon Honor heeds only the ruT ficiency of that firm unyielding patiencey that fixes its hold on the right, and de fies threats, and bribes, cajolery or men ace, to induco the exchange of justice for injustice. The question of what consti tutes a sufficiency belongs to the man, and not the office, neither the exalted Judge, nor the low hireling has a right to bound his probity by the pay he re ceives. It .is trtte thnt tho requirements of the office demand taleirt, and 6harac tcr, that are not to he had cheaply.? Still its nature appeals hot to tho physi cal tastes and appetites, it demands the sacred convictions of Honor aud Truth, and moral virtue should poiBe the beam thnt weighs the cause of justice. "But sometimes Virtue starrm, while vice is fed ; What then ; I? the reward of Virtue bread." THE PORT ROYAL RAILROAD Is at last t>n fait accompli, and links Augusta with, the spacious harbor of Port Royal. The fection of country traVcrscd hy this road, is one of the rich est in the South. From the elegant plantation of the late Governor Ham mond, through Silverton, upper and lower three runs,- AlUndalc, aud on down to the magnificent rice fields'bordering on the route, thence ffcfbss Port Royal, there is no richer soil to he foufid. The owners of property below Allcndalc have endured many revorves siuco the War, owing to many causes which were iropt-s sii?Je to avert, and they must hail the enter? prise with joy. It will immediately create a demand for i?xn\ . products of a small kind, which can find au outlet, and a market. The carriage of cotton, and fertilizers hitherto confined in moijj part to steamers on the Savannah, will bo shared by this line.- A port of impor tance will grow at its const terminus, und the earnest w ishes of tho lamented Ceo. Elliott of Beaufort will bo verified in the lines of busy craft, which AVill stir" tho waters of the" noble bay of Port Royal. FACTORIES. In a previous communication we re* ferred to the vigorous nctit n of Georgia with regard to factories. Tlip invest ments iu this line have proved so profiW ble, that she has at tho latest statistic* more capital employed, than any other Southern State. South Carolina has only 97'50,000 emlmrked- in factories. Tficeo'however liave proved so raniUDsra* tive, that another enterprise Tooking to a ? ft to\y,; ' C--J'f?.-V. A cotton fuctcry to be located at Greenville is on foot. Since the war, there has boon :.o much uncertainty as to investments, that the Northern Life Insurance Com panies have nbsorved 835,000,000, nil of which by the laws governing sweh Compares, is required to' be -invested rh the ?tates where these, compauics She founded. This enormous.drain upou the sinews of our section, if applied to local enterprises - would havo built up our country, and kept our income at home. The City of Lowell, Mass.? employs 81a 000,000 in the manufacture of cottonrf The number of operatives are 812,000, mostly women and children.' These con vert into fabrics the product of 30,000 laborers at the Booth, and the nett gain upon the inVctfttrfonf; is p*ut down at forty per cent. We have the rfltt material at our doors, which :iavcs freight, commis sions, and profits. Wc can wof k tire en tire year,-while the northern factories, lose three months fr jm hard winters'; A single. cotton factory located in each county, would employ 200 operatives, this would create a town, a demand for provisions would follow, and farm pro ducts would sell rapidly and at a good price. We would obtain our fabrics at a reduction of price, our 'means would be harbored at home, and 'every class of property would proportionally increase with the effort. This is a subject for the "Grange" and wo are ready to help them in pushing on to so desirable an end. A2* EYE FOR AX EYE. The execution of Foster on the 21st. in New York, has stirred the great city*-j to its core, Murder lias been rife, and escape almost certain in every case by thc offender. The rowdyism of New York invaded the street cars, and ferry boots With impunity, and as in this case j (where a young lady Was grossly insult ed by Foster, and protected by Mr. Put nam, the latter was brutally slain, for acting tlig part of a friend to a helpless female.) So with others, they have been beaten for attempting to cheek the bru: tality of the roughs against unoffendin? citizens. Like Botmparte's ?h?t in Paj | ris among the emeute*, this death penal ty has magnified tho law, and stricke n terror among the rowdies. Foster "wits* of respectable family, and bis execution brands a Wife with disgrace, and leaves his children a heri'age of infamy. The lost interview of ihn wretched man With his wife, was fearfully trying to both, and in that dreadful "good bye" we trust a prayer was uttered that appealed to the atteutive car of Heaven. He died apparently courageous nftoi confessing his crime. I CniPPLNQS: ?The physicians of BftrnW'cN County paid a fitting tribute to the late lamented Dr. Jas. O. Hrtgood. ?
